Answer 1

This Error means you don't have access to internet.There are two ways you can provide this access by changing these files

1.AndroidManifest.xml

add these following permission

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.NETWORK_ACCESS" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />

2. config.xml

For this you are going to need this plugin

cordova plugin add cordova-custom-config

after adding this plugin , add these lines in you config.xml

<platform name="android">
   <config-file target="AndroidManifest.xml" parent="/*">
      <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
      <uses-permission android:name="android.permissions.NETWORK_ACCESS" />
      <uses-permission android:name="android.permissions.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
   </config-file>
</platform>

You can try it . Hope it helps you .Thanks

If you encounter this problem after removing a plugin or installing a plugin then this solution might work for you.

cordova platform remove android
cordova platform add android

There is no harm in trying it even if you've not installed or removed any plugin.
